My parents have a little vegetable garden. I love visiting when they have ripe tomatoes. They have those small type which eddiebear’s daughter likes. We pluck ’em, wash ’em, and put ’em in a salad, still warm from the sunshine. Delicious!

I tried to upload a pdf tomato chart. It just kept putting in a link instead of the image. Which of the nine assistant site administrators can help me? Did I mention I find the New and Improved dashboard not very new and improved?

No idea, Skinbad, pdf is an allowed file type to upload into WordPress. Are you sure you downloaded a real pdf file and not just a link? I sometimes have had that problem — on some web pages you just copy a link unless you double-click the image to get the file on it’s own page.

BTW, to upload images you now look top right of the Post window (not below), where you will see “Add Media,” and click the first icon, “Add Image.” The resulting popup is pretty cool. You can use Flash or your browser to do the upload. Try both ways if you’re having problems.

OK, Skinbad, I just checked our media library and it looks like you uploaded six copies of “Tomato Science”, and based on the file size you’re only uploading a really small thumbnail of the graphic which is not making it to the post.

Although pdf documents are allowed to be uploaded, it is not an image type and can’t be displayed as such. If you have the original document you might trying saving the picture as a jpeg or gif and then upload that. I’m guessing the funny-to-effort ratio may be an issue, however.🙂
